Sony was not the first with memory cards. Neo Geo did it in 89' and Sega CD in 93'(Had a memory cart, that fit into the cartridge slot). 3DO had a memory card like expansion that fit into a special slot in the back. I also think that a few of the points you have need the "on consoles" modifier. Online gaming, analog, game saves and others were done on PC a long time before it got popular on consoles.
Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.
Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
